Trivia
Stephanie Leon was nine years old when her mother's boyfriend saw an ad in the paper for girls to be in this film. When she saw the long line outside Nordisk Film of hopeful children who wanted a part in the film, she turned around and told her mother, "I'm not doing this!" But she went to the casting anyway and got the part of Maj-Britt in Vibeke Gad's children's film. "It was really hard to be away from home for so long to shoot the film. We were living in Gilleleje at the time and my father had just moved back to Spain, so I had to do without both my parents," she says.

A brilliant story of how friendship can get you through anything

This is a great film about friendship and sticking together through tough times. It shows how two young girls and their families cope with their differences, how they are brought together and torn apart and how they are changed by the injury of a racing pigeon. But when the girls take it upon themselves to heal the pigeon, its recovery can bring them all hope.
